To set up areas for table assignments in your venue, go to Bookings and select the correct venue if you have multiple. Open Configuration, then select Areas to add or manage rooms or dining locations. You can create, edit, copy, or delete areas. When configuring an area, provide a name, set visibility, and assign tables. Areas help organize bookings in the Day Planner for staff visibility.
1. Go to Bookings
To set up areas in your venue to assign tables, go to Bookings to open the dashboard.
(If you have only one venue, selecting Venues will take you straight to your Bookings.)
1.5. Select Venue
If you have multiple venues, select the correct venue that you are looking to make a booking on.
2. Open Configuration
Configuration is where all venue settings for bookings can be created and enabled.
3. Select the option for Areas
Areas can be set up here. Areas allow you to add different rooms or dining locations within your venue.
4. Create or Manage an Area
You’ll now see a list of any existing areas. From this view, you can:
- Click the Create Area to create a new area
- Click the Edit to edit an existing area
- Click Copy to duplicate an area
- Use the Delete to remove one if needed
4. Configure Your Area
When creating or editing an area, fill in the following:
- Area Name: Give the area a clear and recognisable name (e.g. Terrace, Bar, Main Dining)
- Visibility & Configuration: Toggle this on to hide the area from bookings (Unticked means it is available by default)
- Tables & Assignment: Select the tables for this area from your existing table list
Click Create Area once you're done.
💡Pro Tip:
Setting up areas is a great way to keep track of tables. The areas will be displayed in the Day Planner, which allows staff to see all bookings divided by these specific areas.
